The Maps of AoTC

(Updated to include the galaxy maps from Amidala's "less than a
parsec" argument)

Below are various screenshots from the Jedi Library
scene of AoTC. These provide a visual counterpart to the discussion
between Obi-Wan and Dex, wherein we are told that Kamino is a planet
beyond the Outer Rim, 12 parsecs south of the Riche Maze. Obi-Wan points
to an area of the main galaxy, and then points to the Riche Maze. You can see that the
zoom-in is toward the center of the galaxy, falling somewhere in the general
vicinity of the center:

Obi-Wan points to a sector (actually below his finger
location above, which is from a later frame) which
is "...just south of the Riche Maze", which he seems
to point to below:2345678910111213141516

Below, we have the map which
Amidala called up to show Anakin just how close Geonosis was to Tatooine.
The zoom-in is toward a point about 60-70% of the radius of the galaxy away from
center.

Presumably the map is not to scale, since it seems
to convert two bright areas on the galaxy picture into Tatooine and the ringed
Geonosis, which would require us to believe that the entire galaxy is only
several parsecs in width. The Galaxy Far Far Away is known to be
modest-sized, but that's pushing it.

In any case, both of these zoom-ins are toward
planets which are outside the Republic. We are therefore given rough
boundaries. Unfortunately, it is not possible to determine the relative
orientations of the two galaxy images, which would allow us to have two firm
locations. Compare the top view of the galaxy above, for example, with
this closer image of Obi-Wan's view:
